This document provides information on Horizon 2020 funding opportunities for international cooperation projects involving countries in the Southern Mediterranean region. It summarizes the status of EU funding in the region, with the largest amounts going to food security, agriculture, and infrastructure projects. It also lists the top recipient countries and collaborators in Horizon 2020 projects. Finally, it provides details on specific upcoming calls focusing on areas like renewable energy, marine pollution removal, the water-energy-food nexus, and migrant integration.
The document discusses the ESCOLimburg2020 project in Limburg, Belgium, which aims to make the province climate neutral by 2020. The project works with municipalities to develop customized renovation plans for public buildings to achieve energy savings above 30% on average. It explores innovative financing models and aims to invest around 20 million euros to reduce CO2 emissions by around 20,000 tons per year and create about 100 jobs between 2013-2015 by optimizing energy service company (ESCO) models and building industry capacity. The province has long experience with energy efficiency and sustainable building initiatives and hopes this project can help convince local authorities to renovate buildings faster at a higher ambition level.

If our destination is happy clients, happy architects and happy users, there are many roads we can take to get there. Regardless of the vision for your project, happiness is achieved equally by the destination and the journey. In this talk we’ll take a look down at our feet and discuss how stride, speed and pacing can have a major impact on both.
1) OFID's SAP guru Jacobs Edo published his first book titled "Digital Transformation: Evolving a Digitally Enabled Nigerian Public Service" which provides a template for digital transformation of governments and public services.
2) The book details case studies of organizations that have successfully integrated digital systems. It includes a case study of OFID where Jacobs helped reduce paper usage by 50% through SAP, ERP, and EDMS integration.
3) The response to the book has been positive with growing readership and requests from Nigerian government officials. Jacobs hopes the book will spur governments and societies into digital transformation action.
Museums and the Web 2014: Digital Transformation in a MuseumCarolyn Royston
The Imperial War Museums underwent a digital transformation process from 2009-2012:
- They established a Digital Media department and introduced more agile project delivery methods.
- An updated website and online collections were launched to better showcase the museum's collections.
- Social media presence was expanded to increase user engagement.
- By 2012, digital priorities were established across the organization and new digital roles were created, though budget pressures and the museum's pace posed challenges to digital projects. User-focused strategies like collecting user stories helped guide the transformation.

Brad Hoover "Differences between building a consumer vs. enterprise product"Agile Base Camp
Enterprise software product development requires extensive upfront design and prototyping with customer input. It focuses on gaining credibility with reference customers and expanding features for broader appeal. Sales forces can overcome objections. Consumer products require exceptional products that can sell without speaking through fluid interfaces and speedy iterations to test hypotheses and infer user needs. They benefit from co-located product and engineering teams for rapid communication. Both approaches share a focus on clear goals and feedback to create optimal product-market fit.

Right at the top of the sceptical heap is the Board of Directors. You may have collated the necessary stats, analysed the opportunities and threats and identified the technologies that could transform how you do business. But all of this is for naught if you cannot convince the Board, for whom most of your arguments may be far outside their scope of experience.This is a communications challenge, not merely a strategic one.
So how do you persuade the board?

1) Microbial growth in a batch culture occurs in three phases: exponential, deceleration, and stationary. During exponential phase, growth is maximal as nutrients are abundant.
2) The specific growth rate (μ) is directly proportional to biomass concentration and can be modeled mathematically. A plot of the natural log of biomass vs. time yields the growth rate.
3) As nutrients deplete during deceleration phase, growth declines according to the Monod equation, with maximum growth rate (μmax) declining based on residual substrate concentration. Substrate affinity (Ks) also influences growth dynamics.
This document discusses how technological and social changes are transforming the way users interact with services and the need for service design to respond. It advocates taking a user-centered approach that involves co-creation with stakeholders to develop services. This includes user research, mapping user journeys, and considering both digital and physical aspects. The document recommends focusing on real user needs rather than opinions, validating any changes with users, and engaging others to have broader impact. The overall aim is to design services that improve people's experiences and lives.

UX STRAT Europe, Annie Stewart: Building a UX Strategy for EuropeUX STRAT
The document outlines a case study of the European Commission's digital transformation strategy. It describes challenges like working across different departments and providing coherent digital services. The strategy involved understanding user needs, prioritizing tasks, restructuring content, and demonstrating new approaches to educate stakeholders. The goal was to create a central digital platform that is relevant, coherent and cost-efficient for users of the Commission.

The document discusses the upcoming European Commission eGovernment Action Plan for 2016-2020. The action plan will focus on three pillars: 1) Digitalizing public administration with ICT, 2) Enabling cross-border mobility with digital public services, and 3) Facilitating participation in policymaking and co-creation of services. It will implement objectives agreed at the EU level and allow citizens to suggest voluntary actions. A stakeholder consultation platform will crowdsource ideas, apply selection criteria, and monitor implementation of actions using data. The overall goal is to modernize public administration and facilitate interaction between governments and citizens/businesses across Europe.

HijackLoader Evolution: Interactive Process HollowingDonato Onofri
CrowdStrike researchers have identified a HijackLoader (aka IDAT Loader) sample that employs sophisticated evasion techniques to enhance the complexity of the threat. HijackLoader, an increasingly popular tool among adversaries for deploying additional payloads and tooling, continues to evolve as its developers experiment and enhance its capabilities.
In their analysis of a recent HijackLoader sample, CrowdStrike researchers discovered new techniques designed to increase the defense evasion capabilities of the loader. The malware developer used a standard process hollowing technique coupled with an additional trigger that was activated by the parent process writing to a pipe. This new approach, called "Interactive Process Hollowing", has the potential to make defense evasion stealthier.

5 Digital is at the heart of policy and strategy. Services are digital by default. Digital culture is strong: agile, user-centred, innovative, responsive.
4 Senior management have made significant progress in delivering the vision and plan, implementing new capability and trialling it successfully by re-engineering a
range of services to be digital by default.
3 Senior management in place with a remit to set targets, develop over-arching vision and plan, and develop necessary capability and culture. Digital is seen as a key
transformation and advocacy is strong at key parts of the organisation.
2 Some digital services, but often of limited quality. Digital teams in place but tend to be siloed in business units or service/programme teams and have limited
budget and remit. Senior (board level) digital management not in place.
1 No awareness of digital capability, no resources allocated, no digital strategy, plan or metrics, no understanding of best practice, no digital services.
